A tragic accident in St Mary early Monday morning claimed the life of 30-year-old Alldine McLeggon of Grant’s Town, while four of her relatives, including three children, sustained injuries.

The crash occurred around 2:00 a.m. as a Toyota Axio was heading from the Belfield Pen area toward the Wilderness community along the Trinity main road. According to police reports, the driver lost control of the vehicle, causing it to collide with a concrete column at the entrance of Tulloch’s Auto Parts.
